There Will Never Be Another Zink, Never!!! Hearing That Voice Was What I Looked Forward To The Most Going To The Games! On The Ride Home, We Didn't Talk About The Game, We Were Busy Trying To Imitate the Zink!!! Will Never Forget This Man, Never!!! He's The Best Ever At What He Did!!!

The GOAT of P.A. announcers

I loved how he announced timeouts…”The Sixers…call…TIIIIIIIIIIMMMMME”! I think of Zink each time I hear former Buffalo Sabres announcer Rick Jeanneret (who just passed away sadly) say “in OOOOOOOOOOOVERTIIIIIIIIMMME”

I was a huge Sixers fan as kid. Loved this dude....my dad was tight with Steve Mix & those teams back then were so fun to watch.

Met him on the Boardwalk in Atlantic City in front of Convention Center. One in a Million!

When Dr J scored. . .Earrrrrrving !

I'm a Showtime Lakers fan and I loved when The Zinc low keyed low energyed Kareem into. Real 76er guy I loved that Era

I always remember him saying GREER at the line for 2.

3 for 2. Two minutes left in the quarter. He had a bunch of them.

How good is this?!! Awesome. Thanks from Australia. Do you have the actual game it's from?

It was at the end of a reel so I'm not even sure what game this is from, but I suspect it was a preseason game. I believe Mr. Zinkoff passed not long after he did this interview, so I was glad to find it and post. He was as highly revered in Philly as Johnny Most was in Boston.

@@retromaven2159 glad you posted. He lived about a year and change afterward. Remember vividly finding out a few days after Christmas in '85 that he died. Me and my dad loved watching them in part because I was a kid and amused by Zink and how he announced Julius.
